of February, and also fell by 50.1% year-over-year compared to March 2025, indicating a clear slowdown in residential financing activity.<br>This decline comes at a time when overall loan growth is slowing, as total loans at Saudi banks rose by only 0.61% on a month-over-month basis, although annual growth continued at 8.2%, reaching 3.35 trillion riyals.<br>The data also showed mixed performance across lending segments, with consumer loans posting modest growth of 0.13% on a monthly basis and 4.4% on an annual basis, reaching 1.45 trillion riyals, while corporate loans rose at a relatively faster pace of 0.97% monthly and 11.3% annually, reaching 1.9 trillion riyals.<br><br>The sharp decline in mortgage loans reflects a notable shift within the sector, especially as loan growth has stabilized at single-digit levels for the second consecutive month, further reinforcing indications that the momentum of real estate financing has slowed compared to previous
